By the way, you own a daihatsu, not a JEEP, A jeep is American and a proper offroad vehicle. (Along with land rovers of course.)

 I also have a JEEP, a 2000 cherokee xj 4.0ltr i6,
This thread started with the op saying that he has a daihatsu with a v6 omega engine in it, he called it a JEEP, at which point i corrected him, he does not have a JEEP. A DAIHATSU yes JEEP no.

Well thats frightened him off - maybe he was using the term "jeep" in a generic way.

Remember English is probably not his first language ::)

Life is hard.... ::) ::)  Ask a Landrover owner what they think when someone calls it a Jeep... ;) ;)

A Jeep means a Jeep, nothing less and certainly nothing more; like a Landrover likening itself... ;) ;)

Digging the topic out sorry that i disappeared.No i don't own a JEEP,i own a Daihatsu and i am proud of it because i made up something uncommon and unique :y :y

Pics here:

And 2 vids

https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10153037499080769&l=1193565147526485196

So now i want more power!After a lot of research on internet and countless hours of reading i decided to supercharge my engine..
I am currently speaking with a tuner and a mechanic who i trust and came to the conclusion that:

1) I need stand alone ecu(many use Go-tech cause of Jamsport or Dicktator) We will use DTA s60 and make a plag n play fuse from the oem 55pin to the one for the DTA
2)We will delete the oil/water cooler and install an external oil/air( i read that are prone on failure and also helps coolant flow)
3)Use a crankshaft from the 3.2 (it isn't from cast iron like the one in 3.0,will stroke up the engine to 3.1 and will give us more torque at lower rpm which is ideally for off road vehicles)
4)Forged Conrods H beam at OEM dimensions(propably custom because i cannot find rifle peened..damn that block doesn't even have oil squirters :/ )
5)Forged pistons reducing compression to 9:1 or 9.5:1 (propably custom also or we will use from c20let and machine down the valve pockets and 1mm the whole piston)
6)(Here is the good part) Eaton M112 came off a jaguar v8...it has a swept volume of 1835cc so it has huge potential! :D :D
7)Custom Exhaust manifolds
8)Adjustable FPR
9)Custom lightweight crank pulley
10)Custom overdrive coolant pump pulley
11)Top Mount Intercooler

We still have to decide about injectors,fuel rails,clutch disc and valve springs

P.S. Sorry for any grammar mistakes as dbug said English is not my primary language  :y :y
